)IEI T'S economical plan of going up two at a time, and swearing them one after the other, was incompa tible with the dignity of the Preston electors. This loss of so many pairs of unmeniionables is said, by an election' wag, to have caused both CORBETT and his friend inexpressible grief. In Westmoreland there is a grand split, BROUGHA M; who fancied once that lie had the mouse, has played With it till he has last it ; the recantation of forty-nine IN o'er his warmest frienda which has been published, has -- put the whole field in confusion, and there is more jockeying and jobbing amongst the BROUGHAMITES ihsn ' lliere is at a horse race. - At Taunton, the Mr. CRESWELLS, the MIS. CRES WELLS, the Misses CRESWELLS, and all the little CRESWELLS, have been parading before the friends • of freedom, and a dinner has been given to the inde pendent voters of that place, at which a Mr. WELSH presided. Who or what the female part of this inte regting family may be we know not, but that they have odd tastes is pretty certain. The French_ Papers of Wednesday and the Doile of Thursday have been received in due course. We subjoin the only extracts which possess any interest. It would appear that M. MINZIACKY was ,for some time far from satisfied by the, answer of the REIS El , - . FENDI to the' Russian Ultimatum. An equivocal translation of the Turkish Note is said to have raised doubts in his mind, which were, hOwever, entirely re- moved. We shall be surprised if these doubts of the good faith of the Divan do not ultimately prove well Founded. An article from Trieste, of the 2d June, mentions, on the authority of private letters from Corfu, that an important advantage had been gained by the G ree ks by the surrender to COLOCOTRONI of 'lripolizza, on the 13th May. (From the Etoile, dated Thursday, June 15.) CONSTANTINOPLI, MAT la. M. Minziacky, in acknowledging yesterday the receipt of the answer, in writing,transmitted to them on the 14th by the Reis Effendi, respecting the Russian ultimatum, expressed his entire satisfaction. It is said, that an equivocal translation of the Turkish note bad raised some doubts in the mind of Minxiacky; but they seem to be entirely removed. Ile therefore remains here'as Rus sian Charge d'Affaires, and, as he says, the Marquees de Ribeau pierre, formerly appointed by the Emperor Alexander Ambassador to the Porte, will go as Commissioner to the frontiers to treat with the Turkish Commissioner.. This Choice of the Emperor Nicholas !t ' , Were(' as a fresh proof of hie intention to persevere in the pol. ,nliystem previously adopted by Russia. ' TRIZSITt, JUNE 2. Private letters flow Corfu say, that Tripolizza surrendered to Colocotrani on the 13th May. Ibrahim, whose army is much weakened by the battles before Missolonghi, had sent a corps of troops to occupy Tripolizza, but when they reached Calavrita they learned that the place was taken, and were consequently obliged to return to Petra*. These events, if they should be confirmed, would be the most convincing proof of the actual weakness of lbrahitn. (From the Quotidienne.) abain, JuNr. 1. While the French and English Journals speak of the evacuation of Spain by the French troxp• as a thing determined o►► and near It hand, the Swiss regiments here received detachments to bring them to their full complement. Two hundred men corning from prance for the 2d Swiss regiment, are to arrive on the 2bth. Letters from Cadiz, received ibis morning, affirm that a gut ' rills, has carried off 120 horse belonging to the brigade of Castel. lane, while foraging. It must be supposed that this guerilla was ' very strong, for two French squadrons, though taken by surprise, Would not have suffered themselves to be carried off, if they had leet been overpowered by numbers. The letters from Cadiz add, that the Spaniards they hare taken 'prisoners have been sent to th e frontiers of Portugal. It is said that Mr. Lamb, the English Minister, had prepared atunber note, requiring our Government to recognise the indepen dfoo* of our Colonies. It is probable that he has again received negative answer. . It sums that the regular army will soon receive an augments titin of 40,000 men, mantling the auxiliary troops. It is pro bable that the result of this measure will be the disbanding of the Royalist Volunteers, who are troops perfectly devoted and zealous, hut naturally'averse to discipline. Nothing can equal the discredit into which the Duke de l'ln- Fantado has fallen in public opinion. Some complaisant persons Would persuade us that this disgrace is not so muck the fault of the Ministers as the fickleness of the Public ; but whatever it may be, the public do not thus Withdraw their confidence without rea sons more or less evident. The Duke de l'lnfantado will unhap- Pay be one more of the examples, so common in our days, of a Minister raised to power amidst shouts of applause, and falling amidst hisses.

Prom the following passage in a debate in the ' • 'ranch Chamber of Deputies, a few days since, we Infer that the Prime 'Minister in that Country cuter tains opinions, in regard to the use of the King's name IA Parliament, somewhat different from what arc coin ' Monly received in our houses. In the course of a reply to a speech of M. CAST-, atiß PI4RIIER, the Minister of Finance, M. DE 'ILLELE, used these words :*-4 The last Speaker has asked what influence governs the decisions of the Council. Is there not, Gentlemen, an influence in the Council which predominates over all the rest? — The King, who presides at his Councils, :is he not the prime regulator of all influences?" M. CASIMIR PERRINR interrupted him, You abuse the sacred name of the KING." I he Minister replied with warmth,--;-" I.never Abuse the sacred name of the Ki*:G T should not have pronounced it, if you had nut carried your investiga tions into a quarter, into which they ought not to penetrate, the interior of the Council. You ask whether the influence which predominates there, is not that of the President of the Council of Ministers. I am t h ere on my own ground; and 1 lav e s right to lay in whose name the decisions are taken ; in whose name the proposals of Laws are made to vou. It is in his name ; he is the great regulator of the applica tions made by the Min i s ters t o the Chambers." Thismaybe'eOund constitutional doctrine on the other • side of the Channel; but if it be ever received as such ~ on this side, instead of considering the KING speeches as 'those of his Ministera, we must then .consider th e , Ministers' speeches,as those of the KING the wonaerful enlargement of freed om o f d e b ate , an d the no less admirable maintenance of the dignity of that Personage, who has hitherto ever been held uncon nected with the matters in discussion. \Ve received this-morning Lisbon Papers to the of May, but their contents are chiefly of a domestic nature. The PRINcEss REGENT appears to be in defatigable in the dispatch of business, and every thing goe s on smoothly : LlsaoN, MAY 9.3. ' 11,4 Royal Hi g h ness t h e Ni ne's* R egent , applying with I _defittigable se a l to t h e despatch of all business relati.ve to '4l .plititi-; itninistraOan without being deterred either by the portvir, or variety n ' fthe objects, Or by her delicate health, a lld 'knowing ibat plors 9 a s desire the honour of being pre "Med to her, to lay their claims before her, has resolved to re. Iceive all those who desire to speak to her on the Monday, Wed : neaday, and Friday, of each week, between the hours of seven and nine in the evening. Her Royal Highness the Infanta Isabella Maria, desiring tole. duce the expellees of the Royal Hriusehold, called before her the principal Officers charged with the various branches, in order on a view oldie estimate of the expenses for the present year to s te what reduction might be made in them without detracting from what is due,to her august person and the Royal Family, or leaving in distress the families of old servants of the Royal Household, whom her august father relieved with some part of his revenue. In consequence of the conference held in .her presence by the above principal officers, Her Royal Highness ordered a reduction of the expense to the amount of 104,823,163 reals. The Ahnanack of Lisbon, for 1826, which is lately published, is much superior in every respect to those which have preceded it. We select the following particulars as generally interesting. The Kingdom of Portugal contains four thousand one hundred pa rishes, 765,395 houses, and a population of 3,013,900 souls; the superficial extent of the kingdom is 3,150 leagues (twenty to a degree). The list of persons enjoying titles contains 3 Dukes, 34 Marquisses, 76 Counts, 41 Viscounts, and 27 Barons, or 181 in all ; and it is to be observed, that 122 of these persons owe their titles to the munificence of the late King, who, during the 34 years of his reign, created 1 Duke (Victoria), .12 Marquisses, 42 Counts, 40 Viscounts, and 27 Barons, not to speak of the titles created, and extinct during those 34 years by the death of the possessors, but only reckoning those now exist ing; so that there are 59 titles anterior to the reign of the late 'King, and 122 of his creation. MAY 24.—0 n Sunday the 28th there is to he a moat solemn 'procession: in expiation of the most atrocious insults offered sonic time since to the Holy Sacrament by impious persons. His Ma jesty the Emperor and King, Don John VI., having fixed that . day for this religious act, his august daughter, the Infanta D. Isabella Maria, the faithful imitator of the piety and virtues of so exemplary a sovereign, will exert all her efforts to be present at this act of devotion, if her health will permit. The processions which is to proieed' from the church of St. Maria to the church. of St. Domingo, at four in the afternoon of the day shove-men, tioned, will be attended by the Royal Brotherhood of the "Slaves of the Moat Holy Sacrament," which includes almost the whole Court by the Tribunals, by all the Knights of the Military Or ders, by all the religimia•Corporations, even those that are exempt From such sets, and by all classes that can add to the edification and lustre of this exercise of royal devotion, piety and, penitence. The Government has given the necessary orders for the perform ance of this ceremony, not doubting of the ardent co-operation of all the faithful of this capital as usual oil similar occasions. NIDDA, JUN: 4. Immense damage has been done in this and the neighbouring districts within the last week, by dreadful hail-storms and torrents of rain, which have destroyed all the standing crops, and in many places covered the fields and gardens with earth and stone, brought down from the higher parts .of the country. The river Nidda was yesterday swelled to a rapid torrent, and brought down with it ruins of buildings, household furniture of every description, and dead cattle. No person in our district has perished, but the corpses of six persons, of the country higher up, have been found, and it is thought that the number of those who have lost their lives is much more considerable. swazißtAsp, JuLy 7. The Archduke Charles, with his consort and daughter, and their brother-in-law the Duke of Nassau, arrived last Friday at Schaffhausen, and set out next morning on their journey to Zu rich, Berne, and Lausanne, where they will be some time, and return through Tyrol and Vienna. • Among the subjects to he discussed in the next Diet are the re newal of the measures respecting the liberty of the press and those for the surveillance of strangers.

A PRIEST KILLER.—An „Irish Lieutenant Via fering very much-one day in consequence of having been drinking too much entirely the night before; was visited by a brother Officer, who, upon Seeing him in bed, enquired what was the matter. " Och,, my dear," said the invalid, " 1 and very sick, very bad indeed, I was never so bad all my life before, except one time at Tipperary, when Father O'F'linn and myself were drinking for three days and three nights. I was cruel bad that time, but I got over it, and Oise God .I'll get over this too—but very bad." " But what became of your friend the Priest e" enquired the other, " Oh, by C----, he died," rejoined the Lieu tenaat. ABSENCE OE MIND.—The late Sergeant Hill, of eccentric memory, was once invited to spend some days in the country with Lord Erskine.

" For this purpose," said she, " I have packed up six, which will, I hare no doubt, last you during your On the Sergeant's return, his wife remarked how stout he had grown; adding, at the same time, a hope that.he had complied with her request about the shirts. Her husband assured her that he had ; but what was her astonishment on finding that, with his customary absence of mind, he had actually put on one over the other ; and was, ,at that moment perspiring under the influents of no less than six shirts.

Select, I say, such a dish, and draw your chair quietly opposite to it (however ugly the women on either side) ; yea, even if the lady of the house insists on your sitting higher up. Contrive, if you please,: to dispatch your dish before the entrance of the goose. Catch your host's eye at that critical mo ment, and you secure the first slice, Having thus the 'start in goose, you.

NATURE AND Ater.--A story is recorded of Cecco d'Aseoli and of Dante, on the subject of natu ral and acquired genius. Cecco maintained that nature was more potent than art, while Dante asserted the contrary. To prove his principle, the great Italian bard referred to his cat, which by repeated practice he had taught to hold a candle in his paw while he supped or read. Cecco desired to witness the experiment, and came not unprepared for his purpose ; when Dante' s cat was performing it's part, Cecco, lifting up the lid of a . pot which he had tilled with mice, the creature of art knstantly showed the weakness of a talent merely acquired, and dropping the candle, flew on the mice with all its instinctive propensity. Dante was himself disconcerted, and it was judged that dip advocate for the occult principle of native faculties had gained his cause.—Dis raeli'4 Curiosities.
